Swim- 12,400 yards
Run- 33.9 miles
Bike- 102 miles
Total Time- 12:36:00

This was an easy week on the time and volume. I began the week with a MAF test at the track and averaged 7:10 per mile at 148HR, so that's ok but I still need to get back down to the mid 6's. Had a lot of quality swim workouts. Only rode twice, once on the Computrainer where I did a spin class but my coach made me kee p my watts above 230 the ENTIRE time. That was an hour with a lot of pushing. It gets's so hard to keep your watts up spinning in a low gear but great for stregnth. I also did a 4 hour, 82 mile ride with nearly 4000 feet of climbing on Saturday and a good 13 mile run on Sunday at 7:26 pace, cadence is coming back up.

keeping watts above 230 for an entire workout is nuts. Glad to see the training is going well.

Congratulations Brian!

Only reading about that got me tired. I had my A race on Saturday and had to drive back home almost 7 hours on Sunday. Got up early yesterday and had my mom´s birthday dinner party last night (yep on Monday) I´m sitting at my desk with a large cup of coffee (which i never drink) and only want my bed right now.
